Whitchurch Primary School is a small school built in 1965, in a quiet, safe location designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Two of the classrooms face the wooded slopes of Whitchurch Hill and are separated from the other three classrooms by the school hall. The hall serves as a gymnasium, television room and dining hall.
In the school grounds there is a hard-surface netball court, an all weather play surface, adventure and woodland areas, a pond and meadow, and ample open play areas. Whitchurch Pre-School also operates from a classroom within the school grounds, and shares a garden with the Foundation Stage children.

Currently, pupils in Years 1 and 2 as well as Reception children all receive free school meals paid for by government funding. This provision is called Universal Free School Meals or UFSM. In addition to this funding, parents in low income families or those that are unemployed can also apply for Pupil Premium funding so that their children can receive free school meals in subsequent school years (Year 3 and onwards).
All young people should have the opportunity to live healthy and active lives. A positive experience of sport and physical activity at a young age can build a lifetime habit of participation and is central to meeting the government's ambitions for a world-class education system.
Physical activity has numerous benefits for children and young people's physical health, as well as their mental wellbeing (increasing self-esteem and emotional wellbeing and lowering anxiety and depression), and children who are physically active are happier, more resilient and more trusting of their peers.

Report
Amazing school with teachers that work hard to get the best out of every student. Such dedication and effort is hard to come by, and is rewarded by the quality of children that leave the school. Aside from the teaching skills, the children are polite, well mannered and confident which is thanks to the encouragement given by all staff.
